Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
I'm glad you had the self-respect to KNOW you do not deserve to be abused and the courage to stand up for yourself.
Many many many hugs. We can have a party here! *passes out the noisemakers, cake, icecream. HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY. You are a survivor and way stronger than you feel like you are this day.
Happy Birthday!
If he is abusive, you have made the right decision. It may seem hard right now because you are alone. But, it will get better. I think being alone is a lot better than being abused. Take care of yourself and you will get strong enough to go through this.
The mind has a bad habit of only letting us remember the good. We separate and then sit around moping because you miss the good parts. Please think hard and keep the abuse fresh in your mind to give you strength.
